The Rules

The Rules

1. The actor must be linked by other actors. (Sorry, but no directors, costume designers etc.)
2. The Festival actor must be part of a current or past company.
3. They can be linked though a play, a film or a television show.
4. They do not have to appear in the same scene.
5. If one actor is a guest star on a television show, the linked actor must either be a regular cast member at the time or a guest star in the same episode.
6. The Colm/Christopher Handicap- Since most actors can be linked to the Festival using Colm Feore or Christopher Plummer, using either results in a 1 step handicap.
